There is nothing sweeter than knowing another mama half way across the world put so much love into a unique one of a kind piece for your child's reveal! Colton is now 5 months old and I’m slightly embarrassed that it’s taken me so long to get these photos together.īeing that we kept whether we were having a boy or a girl a surprise until the baby’s birthday, I envisioned a room that wasn’t too masculine or feminine, was outdoorsy and nature inspired. This is another perk of Etsy and the ability it gives us to connect with other mom's all around the world. While I did manage to find things at some big box stores, a lot of the decor is from Etsy or small shops that I found right here on Project Nursery! I was able to find pieces from all around the world- Greece, United Kingdom, Canada to name a few. I am a huge fan of supporting small businesses and Etsy is one of my favorite places to shop. My husband purchased a professional sprayer which made it super easy to do-highly recommend doing, especially if you are a crafty person. We also painted a lot of things if the color wasn't quite right. I changed out the boring knobs with cute ones that went along with the theme and it really added a nice personalized touch to the room. I found the perfect crib at Ikea AND it was very budget friendly so that was a win-win in our book! We were also able to find a dresser at Ikea that gave us maximum storage which was important. ![]() I knew the mountain wall was going to be busy enough so I didn't want to overwhelm the room with bulky furniture.

The actual painting itself took a couple weeks as it was very time consuming but my husband and son had so much fun working this together. It took us 2-3 months and 500 trips to the paint store to finally decide on the colors. I am such a visual person and we all know how different paint looks once you get a couple coats on your wall. The hardest part of this was picking out the paint colors. I found different pictures of mountain paintings on Pinterest and was able to give him an idea of exactly what I wanted the mountains to look like. Luckily, my husband is as handy as they come and I knew he would have no problem making this come to life for me. I get a lot of questions about the mountain mural. I fell in love with the Peter Pan quote " To live would be an awfully big adventure" and knew I had to incorporate it somehow. I instantly knew this would be my color scheme and theme, so thank you for that inspiration! I was going for a mountain/adventure/dreamer room. I knew I wanted to do some type of painting or ship lap for the main wall of the room and I happen to come across the collaboration of Carousels Design/Project Nursery's beautiful mountain bedding. I went with a traditional nautical theme for our first born and knew I wanted something totally different for our second. I have always been a huge fan of nurseries that children can grow into so this is something I always keep in mind when deciding on a theme. ![]() Double Arrow Picture Frame: Hobby Lobby.Bedding: Carousel Designs/Project Nursery.
